The Cádizian

Starring Oloroso

The Cádizian, winner of the 2011 U.S. Sherry Cocktail Competition, is superbly balanced, showing-off the Oloroso Sherry and complemented by the Irish whiskey’s similar notes.  The aperitif wine lightens and adds a candied citrus note, while the orange bitters heighten and the Peychauds plays-off the aperitif wine bringing a touch of vegetal note.  These elements combined make for a truly beautiful cocktail.

serving and consuming

Pairing Oloroso with food

The ideal temperature at which to serve an Oloroso is at between 12 and 14ºC. 

This is the most suitable wine to accompany red meat and game. It combines perfectly with meat stews and casseroles; especially gelatinous meat such as bull's tail or cheeks. The perfect match for wild mushrooms and well cured cheeses.
